Yes, we know. It seems like just last week you sank into the living room couch, with the lights dimmed, as three plates of Thanksgiving dinner digested in your stomach. Right? Well, that was almost a month ago. The holidays are just around the corner. Whether you’re celebrating with family or friends, something low-key or an all-out bash, the fact remains; you’ll be buying a few gifts.

There’s mom, dad, the husband or the wife, kids, friends…the list goes on. With the madness that takes hold of retail stores starting on Black Friday, we’ve decided to shop Etsy for a unique change of pace.

Etsy is filled with homemade, handmade items that have a certain charm and one-of-a-kind feel to them. From air plants, to cozy scarves, we’ve sorted through endless shops to find what speaks most to the Børn heart.

For the Botanist

An air plant attached to a charming amethyst crystal. Beautiful, simple, and stunning. Air plants make a great gift because they need little care; keep themon a dresser, a window ledge, or anywhere that needs a little life and color.

Anyone who doesn’t want a blanket scarf this time of year is fooling themselves. This one is handmade with soft cotton flannel and mimics the cozy feel of laying under a blanket besides a crackling fire. Wear it with your favorite Børn boots.

And hot chocolate lover, of course. Give the gift of handmade pottery. This mug is finished with a beautiful carving of pine tree; very of-the-season. If there’s ever been a mug to inspire a cup of hot cocoa, it’s this one.

Get your orders in ASAP – the last chance to place your order to ensure arrives in time is approaching for most shops. Each store is different, make sure to read the fine print before placing your order.
